How does your game fit the theme "Unconventional Means"?
Our main character, Troppo, is a flamingo that rides around in a shopping cart! Additionally, Karens invade the "Flamingo Mart". These aspects are all unconventional.

Flamingo Market Ups and Downs

Ups:

  • Story concept is very unconventional
  • Controls feel good
  • Character designs look good

Downs:

  • The background graphics with the black and white colour palette don't look too great. I think a different colour palette would have helped
  • The game seems to reload the level once I reach a certain point, which it makes it feel like I'm just playing the same section over and over again

Overall, a pretty charming and unique game!

Well this is definitely unconventional. I like the idea but I think I noticed I kept looping back to the beginning after a while, so it felt like I wasn't really making any progress. Also, did you compose the music?

Developer

Wow! Well it's amazing to see a comment from you! The idea of this game is that it's an endless runner. This is one of my first few games, so it's not the best of quality.

Additionally, I did indeed make the music with a software from school.

Anyways, thanks for the comment!

I like it, you can kinda cheese it though. Just spam the Q button and you'll be fine. So if you had a limited amount of money and could pick up money on the floor while you roll, it would add more gameplay. However this was well done and I enjoyed it!

Developer

Thanks for the comment! I'm glad you liked it, and I will work on it!

It's a cool idea, but it's not possible to avoid the Karens, so moving yourself is useless. I just kept spamming money all the way.

Interesting concept, but I think collisions need some tweak because you can ride the store's shelves, and I believe the Q button isn't working properly.

Developer

Thanks for the tip! I'll definitely be working on making the game better!

Very funny. But i dont think the throw money function works as pressing Q does nothing
